Crysis 3 System requirements revealed

“Yes… but will it run Crysis 3?”

Most likely Crysis 3 will become the new PC game which demands a lot of hardware power to run in full glory. For playing the game in High setting you would require a system with either i7 2600k/AMD FX 4150 , 8 gigs of memory  and with a choice of  GTX 680 from Nvidia or AMD Radeon’s HD 7970.

To refresh one’s memory, Crysis was very demanding on PC that many had to upgrade their systems. Most likely Crysis 3 will do the same what Crysis did in the past. I am not sure why/how,  FX 4150 can be an AMD counterpart to 2600k but then again the game may most likely be GPU intensive should you require to run it with very desirable settings.
